Abstract

The Canadian Light Source Inc. (CLS) is a mid-size 3-rd generation 2.9 GeV synchrotron located on the campus of the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon (www.lightsource.ca). Currently there are 15 beamlines operating at the facility. Four laboratories: Canadian Macromolecular Crystallography Facility (CMCF), Mid Infrared Spectromicroscopy (Mid-IR), Bio-Medical Imaging and Therapy (BMIT) and Biological X- ray Absorption Spectroscopy (BioXAS) are dedicated to study biological objects ranging from atomic resolution (CMCF and BioXAS) to cells and tissues (BioXAS and Mid-IR) through to larger samples such as organs, live animals and plants (BioXAS and BMIT)
